Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubuntu-vm-builder
This is under Jaunty alpha 5(ish). Having followed the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/jeos-and-vmbuilder.html, I managed to install ubuntu-vm-builder and get apt-proxy installed and running in order to create a kvm-based ubunt-hardy image thus: vmbuilder kvm ubuntu --suite hardy --flavour virtual --arch i386 -o --mirror http://localhost:9999/ubuntu --addpkg acpid The resulting image boots quite happily under kvm. I then decided to re-run the command to produce a VMWare Server equivalent: vmbuilder vmserver ubuntu --suite hardy --flavour virtual --arch i386 -o --mirror http://localhost:9999/ubuntu --addpkg acpid This NEARLY works, but dies at the last moment: ... 2009-03-12 08:43:47,352 INFO Copying to disk images 2009-03-12 08:44:21,273 INFO Installing bootloader 2009-03-12 08:44:24,119 INFO Unmounting target filesystem 2009-03-12 08:44:24,414 INFO Converting /tmp/vmbuilderB4UNWR/disk0.img to vmdk, format ubuntu-vmserver/disk0.vmdk 2009-03-12 08:44:55,874 INFO Cleaning up Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/vmbuilder", line 29, in <module> VMBuilder.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/VMBuilder/__init__.py", line 66, in run frontend.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/VMBuilder/plugins/cli/__init__.py", line 67, in run vm.create() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/VMBuilder/vm.py", line 463, in create self.deploy() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/VMBuilder/vm.py", line 184, in deploy getattr(self.hypervisor, 'deploy')() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/VMBuilder/plugins/vmware/vm.py", line 46, in deploy vmdesc = VMBuilder.util.render_template('vmware', self.vm, vmxtemplate, { 'disks' : self.disks(), 'vmhwversion' : self.vmhwversion, 'cpu' : self.vm.cpu, 'mem' : self.vm.mem, 'hostname' : self.vm.hostname, 'arch' : self.vm.arch, 'guestos' : (self.vm.arch == 'amd64' and 'ubuntu-64' or 'ubuntu') }) NameError: global name 'vmxtemplate' is not defined I shall attach the output of re-running the command with the --debug option ... r...@graham-desktop:~# lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu jaunty (development branch) Release: 9.04 r...@graham-desktop:~# apt-cache policy ubuntu-vm-builder ubuntu-vm-builder: Installed: 0.10-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 0.10-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 0.10-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/universe Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: ubuntu-vm-builder (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- vmbuilder for vmserver fails with vmxtemplate undefined https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341596 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
